Domain of Ribonnet

Since the 15th century, the castle of Ribonnet has stood proudly on a hill 260 meters above sea level, between Lèze and Garonne, in Beaumont sur Lèze, south of Toulouse. Belonging to the Toulouse nobility until the French Revolution of 1789, the castle has seen several owners including the father of aviation, Clément Ader. The latter left his mark on the estate by modernizing the vineyard.

Since the 1970s, the Gerber family has set out to revive this terroir. The estate is located at the crossroads of an oceanic, Mediterranean influence and also benefits from the assets of the Pyrenean foothills.

The entire vineyard has been organic since 2001. On the 24 ha of the estate, 14 grape varieties are vinified in plots: Syrah, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Pinot noir, Malbec, Marselan and Grenache (first harvest expected in 2024), Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Chenin, Viognier, Aligoté and Albarino (first harvest 2024). The harvest is manual and the interventions in the cellar are minimal in order to best preserve the expression of our terroir. The vines benefit from permanent grass cover. The work in the vineyard is done exclusively by hand.

Our range of wines is diversified in order to meet all tastes and desires: white, rosé, red and sparkling wines.

We offer visits lasting 1h30/2h, during which you can visit the cellars built by Clément Ader and discover the wines of our estate.

Also, we are able to welcome you on site!

In addition to its pleasant living room, our cottage has two bedrooms and can comfortably accommodate 4 people.
